Mistakes are Opportunities
Tuesday, February 1st, 2011When a person close to me has a problem it can disturb my peace. If I give unsolicited advice to that person to change in some way, it is not about them, it is about me. It is how I feel and what I need to do for that person to restore my peace. If I am doing something for another to change or help them I am moving into the land of manipulation which is usually a mistake.
But that mistake is the opportunity for awareness of my intention and awareness of what is disturbing my peace. It is the opportunity for another take. It should be done for me, done for my peace, done because it is who I am, not to change another. Mistakes are the opportunity to become more aware of my self.
What we can do for others is not to judge them and try to change them but to “Hold the Vision” for their highest good without telling them. This gives us the opportunity to shut up, send positive energy to that person and move on.
